Helen is often invited to speak worldwide at corporate, public, government, academic and school events, on subjects including teamwork, leadership and achieving goals. These relate to her career, training and experiences as an astronaut, which she combines with her subsequent management experience.
Helen takes her audience on a journey into space. She describes aspects like training and preparation, launch, the effects of microgravity, living and working in space, teamwork and adjusting to life back on Earth.
In his foreword to Helen’s autobiography Seize The Moment, Arthur C Clarke writes “Her account of the hours before the launch and the actual sensations during ascent into orbit is so gripping that any reader will feel a vicarious involvement. This is exactly what it must be like.”
On 15 December 2015, when Tim Peake began his mission to the International Space Station (ISS), Helen was delighted to join Brian Cox and Dara Ó’Briain to watch and commentate on the live docking of the Soyuz spacecraft with the ISS on BBC TV’s Stargazing Live.
